Fiberglass Repair

Professional fiberglass work. It is on the sign out front, and it has been part of the trade here for forty years.

It's on the sign because it's true

Cracked bumper covers, a ground effects skirt that shattered on a curb, a fender flare that popped its mounting tab, a spoiler that cracked clean through its mount. Fiberglass does not bend back into shape the way sheet metal does. It has to be built back up, shaped, and sanded before anything gets painted over it, and if that part gets rushed, the crack comes back within a season. Our road sign out on La Salle Avenue reads PROFESSIONAL BODY & FIBERGLASS WORK. Nobody in an office wrote that for us. It has been true here for forty years.

Then it goes to the paint side

A fiberglass repair is only half finished once the crack is gone. It still has to match whatever colour is already on the vehicle or trailer around it, which is where the color match guarantee comes in. We mix the color ourselves instead of ordering a stock can off a shelf, so a repaired panel does not read as a repaired panel once it goes back on.

Bumper covers, ground effects and trailer panels

Most of what comes through the door is a bumper cover that took a curb or a parking lot hit, or a ground effects piece that cracked loose from underneath. We also see body trim that has gone chalky and brittle in the Texas sun, and trailer fenders that finally gave out after enough gravel roads. Each one gets built back up with fiberglass cloth and resin before any sanding starts, not just filled and painted over.

Insurance is accepted on collision-related fiberglass damage, and estimates are free whether the job is a small crack or a whole panel. Bring it by 2015 La Salle Avenue and we will look at it with you before you commit to anything.
